HEALING EMOTIONAL WOUNDS, PART III

We continue our post from April 12, 2022 www.holmastrology.com/apps/blog/show/50263486-healing-emotional-wounds-part-i?siteId=126690493&locale=en-US and April 14, 2022 www.holmastrology.com/apps/blog/show/50264509-healing-emotional-wounds-part-ii?siteId=126690493&locale=en-US

 

Living in the moment and experiencing the now is all we are guaranteed. Expectations and living in the past set us up for emotional wounds and disappointment.

 

Life is always taking us where we need to go. Many of us believe that there are much greater forces at work. Let go and let God, some would suggest. Others want to have a hand in all that unfolds. Perhaps a balanced blend of both is what is required.

 

We have seen some suggest that we should move forward without any expectations. Others suggest that we hold on to what is dear and meaningful and maintain these as our focus.

 

What feels right to you?

 

What do you feel you need to do or not do because of the conditions in your life?

 

The answer can be found deep within. Sometimes the answer is not what we want to hear so we ignore it. Do not get stuck on “why”, “should have” or “could have”. Life is about moving forward. You cannot stay back in the mindset of regret. It is not productive and robs you of living.

 

Do not personally own events. They are experiences which are not a part of you. Allow yourself the freedom you need to move forward. Listen to the voice within. Listening through quiet meditation often produces the answers. There is a greater force within that.

 

If you are struggling, ask for advice or assistance. You do not have to do it alone.

 

Experience your journey fully by living in the moment. The past is but a memory. Tomorrow is not guaranteed. Right now is yours! Experience with it!

SUN IN TAURUS 2022

 The Sun moves into the sign of Taurus on April 19, 2022 EDT or April 20 UT. This post applies to individuals with their Sun in Taurus, and to a lesser extent to those with many planets in the second house or to those with the rising sign in Taurus.

 

As we move from the fire sign of Aries and into the earth sign of Taurus, we have pushed ourselves out into the world and are now ready to move into a more secure life situation. Aries instigates aggressive pursuits to make something out of themselves and Taurus now wants to instil a more sure-footed journey, as well as security.

 

Taurus’ energy builds a foundation that can stand the test of time. This is often acquired through material means and security is often measured by the rewards offered from a bank account that is slowly but steadily rising. Taurus individuals are security minded and use determination and discipline to reach their objectives. They do not rush to stake their claim as Aries individuals would. Taureans choose a more solid structure that guarantees success over time. They are determined and not afraid of hard work. They understand that if this is what it takes to achieve success, then that is the route to take.

 

They are not considered spontaneous and Taureans like a tried and tested route. They quietly build on structured ground and move forward for security and stability. They rarely sway off the chosen path and can be counted on in most situations. In times of strife, they are usually cool headed and ward off anything that could jeopardise their sense of safety. They master through perseverance, staying steadfast and standing tall in the face of adversity. They are very calm individuals although once you have angered them, they can be quite explosive and have a difficult time settling down and letting go.

 

Taureans are fixed in their ways and quite opinionated. Some are considered inflexible and stubborn to a fault. They have a difficult time adapting to anything new and will stubbornly adhere to their ways of doing things. They are not spontaneous with decisions making but will remain true to their word once given. This makes them quite reliable and responsible individuals. You can count on them, and they will stick through things until the end. Time required is not of significance; they know that to build that secure and reliable product, they must do things right, with a sure-footed approach. They believe that they will find the structure that they are in search of.

 

In love relationships, they are faithful and will work hard at maintaining a meaningful relationship. They are romantics and very sensual. They will lavishly look after those they love and surround them with beauty. They are very earthy and not inclined to be drawn to wanderlust activities. They prefer to remain at home, and travel is not something that means a lot to them. They will however travel to keep their loved one happy. They like structure and anything new that has the potential of unsettling their comfortable life can produce anxiety and worry. They like things to be predictable and steady.

 

To uncover more meaning in life, Taureans will school themselves through practical learning and formulated ideas. If this suggests long tedious tasks that require concentrated energy and an ability to keep moving in an intended direction, they can be counted on in reaching this destination. Patience is a key character trait.

 

Their motto could be “good things are worth working for”.

 

Transits to the Sun in Taurus will be posted in the near future.

LIBRA FULL MOON APRIL 16, 2022

Today, April 16, 2022, we are experiencing a Full Moon in the sign of Libra at 26 degrees. Libra, a Cardinal, Air sign is strongly attached to relationships. Partnership and the need for balance and harmony are forefront. Although balance and harmony are key in relationships there is also a need for justice and fairness. Libra is a very amiable sign and truly wants to build on trust and honor through integrity and in some cases compliance.

 

The house position of this full moon in your chart will help define the areas of life if influencing your chart and other planetary energies making aspects to this position will also temper its influence.

 

The Full Moon speaks of the culmination of events started when the New Moon was in the same sign some six months ago. What was started then may now be near completion. Adjustments may be required if you did not put in the required work.

 

Currently T Pluto is 28 degrees Capricorn making a square to the position of the Full Moon and within range of having an influence. Pluto when making a square to this position can hamper outcomes and cause power struggles that may call for transformations on some level. There are no halfway measures about Pluto, and it can be quite disruptive, festering in the background for some time and now showing its energy.

 

If this has to do with marriage, adjustments are required and often on a large scale as the relationship may have been challenged for some time. Things will surface and need to be dealing with. These must be met head on and dealt with accordingly. The seventh house would be activated or perhaps the Ascendant.

 

If the occupation is asking for attention, then the tenth house or perhaps Saturn or the Sun might be part of the influence.

 

It should be understood that squares although challenging also indicate that some action is required in order to move forward and this is the beauty of this aspect. It is challenging enough to push you to make things right or change direction. In some case when Pluto is involved the changes are significant and is changed dramatically, although this will not be sudden in nature as you likely know that things need revamping.

 

Although this period can be challenging you will find that over time the changes were the right move and you will understand why as the dust settles.

HEALING EMOTIONAL WOUNDS, PART II

We continue our post from April 12, 2022 www.holmastrology.com/apps/blog/show/50263486-healing-emotional-wounds-part-i?siteId=126690493&locale=en-US

 

When we are called upon to move in new directions, no matter what the reason, the adjustment period can certainly be challenging. We CAN adapt, however. It is part of our nature. (The human race would not have flourished if we could not adapt.) The end of any condition, no matter what it is, always brings with it a new beginning.

 

A part of us, deep within, will understand that a transformation is required and sometimes life changes dramatically so that we can move out of complacency or a place of stagnation to find what is necessary for our own personal growth. We are not specifically speaking of someone’s death; this reference is general. Everything in life happens for a reason, although we may not always be able to figure out what that reason is. The answers often unfold over time and the “why” behind events begin to make some sense, but this is not always the case.

 

The changes we speak of could involve losing a loved one, but it could also be expressed in many other ways. We might step out of a relationship of significance, or someone may leave us when we believed the relationship was solid and secure. There may be times when we have made changes to our occupation which we though were secure. Sometimes we need to physically move away from those that we love. The possibilities of change are endless.

 

Change, however, is inevitable. It can happen when we least expect it but we cannot live in fear. The state of fear is not living. We adapt; we overcome; we flourish.

 

Visit us again on April 19 and we will finish our focus on dealing with emotional wounds.

MARS MOVES INTO PISCES

Mars the ruling planet of Aries and co-ruler of Scorpio moves into the sign of Pisces on April 16, 2022. It remains in Pisces until May 25. Mars does not go retrograde until the end of October in the sign of Gemini.

 

Mars is associated with energy, push and our sex drive. It pushes us to act and can be rather impulsive and aggressive. There is no stagnation period with Mars although the retrograde cycle will slow matters down. Due to its quick movement Mars influences our birth chart for about two weeks in any given area. During this time depending on the aspect involved it speaks to us in terms of advancement and progress. To a certain degree its action may need to be stifled somewhat due to its forceful push. We can make mistakes along the way unless we charter our path ahead.

 

In the sign of Pisces Mars’ momentum and push can be linked to our advancement towards enlightenment and our spiritual connectedness. Meditation can produce great advances during Mars’ stay in Pisces and visionary interludes can become more prominent for those leaning this way.

 

Pisces has to do with service and compassion, and we may find that we want to help those less fortunate than ourselves and have more compassion. Working with the challenged and the needy are in line with Pisces’ desire to promote love and affection. Any service-oriented work or gesture will add perfectly with the energies of Mars in Pisces.

 

Although Pisces has a challenging time dealing with adversity, Mars may enhance our ability and drive to dissolve these issues if there are any that surface during this time. If we are going through a challenging condition perhaps linked to a relationship that lacks honesty, this might be the time when we decide to move away from the difficulty.

 

Pisces can also be quite romantic and when Mars is involved particularly when in aspect by harmonious links in the birth chart, romance can be highlighted. There may be strong sexual overtones to what this relationship entails, and you can fall head-over-heals in love during this powerful push from Mars. It will however be important to ensure that what you are viewing actually is what is in place as Pisces can be gullible. Romance however has a chance to bloom if all the right pieces come together.

HEALING EMOTIONAL WOUNDS, PART I

Emotional baggage can be exhausting to overcome but worse to carry around unresolved.

 

Our minds must process the information and to do so we must face whatever events have taken place. Our minds can play with the information creating interference and often, our minds make the matters much worse than they actually were. Our minds, over time, can also build on the information and exaggerate the original experience.

 

Many of us have experienced events that have been very emotional and depleting. They can cause emotional wounds that run very deep.

 

With most events in life, we have little control over the actual event, but we do have control over how we process and response to them.

 

Do we accept or do we fight the process?

 

It is essentials to separate ourselves from these events. They are not a part of us. They are not who we are. We do not own these events. Letting go or accepting can be one of the most challenging tasks we face, especially when it comes to losing loved ones for example.

 

We certainly need time to process and to adjust but acceptance is essential. Acceptance is required to move forward with our lives.

 

We will continue our focus on emotion wounds on April 14.

ANALYSIS OF THE PROGRESSED CHART

 The progressed chart is a wonderful tool in Astrology to tell us the story of how we are evolving in our personal life. The progressed chart, along with transits and the solar chart, are the three main factors in determining how the energies of the planets will unfold over a specific period. We can go back or forward to any time we wish to analyse. (The solar chart is a chart drawn up for any specific year from birthday to birthday). Advanced Astrologers can also use the midpoints to obtain more information when delineating events and timing. Solar arc is yet another tool for the advanced Astrologers.

 

The P. Sun, Midheaven and Ascendant as well as the house cusps move approximately one degree of arc each year. The Sun, Mercury, Venus, and Mars all have a three-year affect in relation to the natal chart if they are making aspects, while the outer planets move much slower, and their orb of influence is very tight. Some Astrologers use a 10–15-minute orb of influence with the outer planets to the natal positions.

 

You can read the progressed chart without including natal planets. Transits to the progressed positions can be utilized for information.

 

Each day of life after birth in a progressed chart equals one year of life eg your chart will move 30 days forward at age 31. The first year of life in a progressed chart is reflected by the actual first day of life. There are specific intervals in accordance with the aspects used in Astrology (solar arc) eg age 30 all the planets are in semi-sextile and at age 45 all the planets are in semi-square, etc. This is another form of delineation used by advanced Astrologers.

 

The P. Sun, Midheaven and Ascendant are very significant in the progressed chart, just as they are in the natal chart. The angular points (MC-Midheaven, ASC-Ascendant, DC-Descendant and IC-Immum Coeli) are activity areas. They are considered action points and are very important indicators as to when activity will take place. These angular points become active when a transiting planet is nearing the degree and becoming direct to the angular point. Activity or intensity increases the closer they are to being direct (most intense when at the exact same degree). eg having the Midheaven at 14 degree 27 minutes Gemini, the transiting planet becomes exact at that degree of 14 degrees 27 minutes Gemini.

 

The progressed planets when forming a conjunction to one of these angular house cusps will play a significant role for that particular year, and the energies will mix with the sign on the cusp of the house. The P. Moon moves approximately one degree per month. When activated, this influential period often suggests a significant change on some level and/or some emotional interaction. The P. Moon can also be used as a timer in Astrology. The Moon’s influence would be 3 months: one degree approaching, one degree while direct and one degree while separating. Each degree equals one month of time. eg when a planet is at 12 degrees in a sign, the P. Moon will be active from 11-13 degrees of that sign or in aspect forming an angle to this placement in the chart.

 

The progressed chart has similarities to the natal chart but differs with its orb of influence as it is not as wide.

 

Progressions are experiences that are on a more internal level, but they can still activate energies on an external level. The Sun and Moon and angular points are very significant and can affect the individual on an energetic and event-oriented manner.

 

All the major aspects hold relevance just as they do in the natal chart, (Conjunction, Sextile, Square, Trine, Quincunx) although as mentioned they use a smaller orb of influence. The minor aspects are also important but again you must use a much smaller orb of influence than the orb used in a natal chart.

 

You can have the inner progressed planets (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, and Mars) affecting the natal chart indicating activity or influence, as well as transits influencing the progressed chart. The outer planets can have a profound effect if they become active or once again touch off an aspect in the natal chart through retrograde.

 

The progressed chart defines how the individual is developing in life through the movement of the planets. Progressions is a wonderful tool to help define how we are evolving in our personal lives.
